Meet the Dink Performance Paddles: Designed to Take Your Game Further
Share
If pickleball has gone from a casual hit to a regular fixture in your week, chances are you’ve started noticing the limits of your current paddle. That’s exactly where the new Dink Performance Paddles come in - built for players ready to sharpen their skills and play with more confidence.
These paddles are designed to support progression: better control, more consistent shots, and comfort that holds up across longer matches.
Carbon Fibre Surface for Control and Spin
At the heart of the Performance Paddle is a carbon fibre surface, chosen for its ability to deliver excellent grip on the ball. This added texture helps generate spin more easily, giving you greater control on dinks, drops, and passing shots.
The result is a paddle that feels responsive without being unforgiving - ideal for players refining technique and shot placement.
Longer Design, Bigger Sweet Spot
The slightly elongated handle gives you increased reach at the net and from the baseline, helping you stay competitive in faster rallies.
That longer profile also expands the sweet spot, meaning off-centre hits are more forgiving. You’ll notice fewer mishits and more consistent returns, especially when you’re under pressure.
Comfort That Lasts Match After Match
Performance isn’t just about power - it’s about how the paddle feels after an hour on court.
At 240g, the Dink Performance Paddle is optimally weighted to balance stability with manoeuvrability. It’s light enough to reduce fatigue, but solid enough to deliver confident shots throughout longer games.
The 16mm thickness and polypropylene honeycomb core help absorb vibration, giving you a softer feel at contact and reducing strain on your arm during extended play.
Built for Serious Play, Without the Overkill
Every design choice in the Performance Paddle is intentional — no gimmicks, no unnecessary bulk. From the 13.5cm grip length that suits modern two-handed shots, to the durable construction built for regular use, this paddle is about reliable performance on court.
